About

Welcome to Dialogues! In this session, we will be discussing Free Will and using this discussion guide. 
﻿
Here’s some helpful information to help you prepare for your session:
﻿
📌 Session introduction: At the start of the session, the event host will provide some introductory remarks about how the session will work and tips for discussion.
﻿
🧩  Discussion partner matching: All participants will be matched with a conversation partner to discuss with. If there are uneven numbers, you may have two conversation partners.
﻿
🤝 Breakout discussions: After the session introduction, everyone will switch to their breakout discussion. Your discussion will be unmoderated, so you can start when your partner arrives in the new Zoom link. 
﻿
🗺️ Discussion Guide: You will have a topic-specific discussion guide for the session to help guide conversation. 
﻿
⏰ Session length: The breakout discussions are scheduled for 45 minutes but you can discuss as long as you want! 
﻿
✅ Stay on topic: Please make sure to stay on topic. If you and your partner run out of things to discuss, it’s okay to end the discussion early. You will not be returning to the main group when your conversation is over. 
﻿
🤔 Make the discussion your own: You probably won’t have time to answer all the guide questions so pick and choose! Feel free to also bring in your own questions and ideas outside of the guide. 
﻿
📝  Survey: A mandatory survey will appear at the end of your session to fill out. This must be filled out for you to get credit for the session in your Dialogues portfolio. 
﻿
🤸‍♂️ Have fun: There is no preparation needed for this event. These conversations are meant to be casual, in addition to being meaningful. We hope you enjoy it!

Hey everyone! I am Hafsah, a high school junior from India, taking advanced-level coursework in school. I'm really passionate about anything related to cognitive science, math, CS, philosophy and linguistics. In my free time, I love to read, ski, research on random topics that catch my interest, do some cooking and learn new languages. I'm also a huge speech and debate enthusiast - I started participating in 4th grade and have never stopped since! I've taken the Digital SAT, with a superscore of 1530 (750 R&W, 780 Math). I'd be happy to help out with anything related to Math (from Pre-Algebra to Calculus), Science, Computer Science or SAT Prep. Excited to be a tutor here at schoolhouse, and I look forward to seeing you in my sessions!

Hey there! Glad you stopped by my profile. I’m extremely passionate about learning new things and enjoy collaborating with classmates and teachers. When I’m not hitting the books, you’ll find me reading non-fiction—it's a great way to boost my thinking skills! I also enjoy drawing and painting, which helps me get creative and pay attention to the little details. I’m pretty good at pre-calculus and algebra, and I’m always happy to help others with these subjects. Let’s learn and grow together—feel free to reach out!
